Medici Family and Michelangelo Buonarroti Tour

Medici Family and Michelangelo Buonarroti TourScroll down

Description:

Did you know that the young Michelangelo's talent was discovered and supported by Lorenzo de Medici and led to a lifelong very controversial friendship? If you are, like me, in love with Michelangelo and passionate about the intriguing and outrageous story of the Medici family, I’m your girl. Come with me to learn everything you want to know about them, including many interesting facts, curious stories, and spicy details about their life. We will walk through the historical center of Florence and I will show you some of the most breathtaking works of Michelangelo, the places where their extraordinary lives took place. Together we will discover many hidden gems that you might miss if you are with a group or by yourself. While strolling through the streets of the city center, we will also admire all the most important Florentine monuments. At the end of the day, you are going to be in love with Michelangelo, the Medici Family, Florence, and of course with me! My wish is to create an unforgettable experience tailored and fully customized to your personal needs and likes (the sky is the limit) and make it a fun and unforgettable experience. Tours can be dreadfully boring, mine will be filled with excitement and breaks for coffee, ice cream, or the typical aperitivo, and time will fly. My greatest joy is to share this beautiful city of Florence with you, and I can’t wait for your call!
